Drove into work and like I do every day, drove past Pesche’s – pretty much a gardener’s paradise. I’m not a gardener, but I do find myself stopping in a lot to gawk at the pretty plants. It’s been awhile since I did it, but from the corner of my eye, I saw a bunch […]

Why 7 photos? I’m not sure. It just seems like a nice number, especially since I haven’t posted in the last week. So I figured I’d share 7 random photos from life lately. So let’s start up with the top image of The Hubs and I adulting (aka eating cookies while the kids were napping) […]

My brother moved to San Francisco back in 2006. I was a little sad about it back then….but only for a little bit because I already knew at the time that San Francisco was one of my favorite cities and him moving out there would give me a reason to visit. And that has been […]

The Kid was asked to stay home for a few days to make sure his HFMD was under control and wouldn’t be caught by his classmates. I understand where the school was coming from, but I was still pretty frustrated as I ended up having to stay home with him Monday. (The Hubs had been […]

I was in Vegas last week for work, and while I didn’t do anything that falls under the “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” motto (….at least not that I remember), I am so tired. The top image is from one of the nights I managed to make it to my room after a […]

For a Caribbean cruise, a few years back (pre-children) I bought a waterproof point-and-shoot camera thinking it’d be cool to take pictures under water. I used it a few other times, including the time my SIL came into town: Long story short, The Kid had an interest in take pictures (I have no idea how […]

The correct thing to do if you’re from Chicago and heading north into Wisconsin is to stop at Mar’s Cheese Castle. I think most people have intentions of picking up cheese curds, but there is also craft beer, pastry items and dried meats. Oh, and you can stop there for lunch as there’s a concession-like […]

Hi hi, I pass two Starbucks in the morning on the way to work, and I’m not sure what it is about Fridays but last Friday, both drive-thrus were super long. When I approached the second Starbucks, I decided to park and walk inside. Figured it’d take less time. Wrong. The place was nearly empty. […]

We work very hard to have low key weekends around here – it helps us to regroup as a family and more importantly, it’s good for our sanity. 🙂 It started with an egg breakfast on Saturday morning (scrambled for The Girl and me and sunny side up for the other two). After breakfast, I […]

Hi there! I will be traveling this week, so I’m not sure how much design I’ll get to do but I’ll do what I can! MONDAY So I had a nice relaxing weekend where we had friends over for dinner on Saturday (I feel like I say that a lot). And Sunday was Mother’s Day, […]
